Week 7 Fantasy Football Rankings: Kickers

Week 7 Fantasy Football Rankings: Kickers image

In his second debut for the Los Angeles Chargers, Nick Novak did what Younghoe Koo failed to do twice -- make a game-winning field goal in the final seconds.  In Week 7,  we hope your kicker can do the same for your fantasy team - win the game - and with these Week 7 kicker rankings, we believe these are the guys who can put up the biggest point totals.

Only two teams are idle this week, affecting Matt Prater and Ka'imi Fairbairn.  The top matchup between kickers will Patriots vs. Falcons, which appear to be a high-scoring affair, leading to points for Stephen Gostkowski and Matt Bryant.  For what it's worth, Dan Bailey, coming off a bye, returns against the 49ers, who have given up the most points to opposing kickers this season, and Greg Zuerlein stays atop his No. 1 fantasy kicker status against the Cardinals, a team ranked in top-10 for most fantasy points to opposing kickers.  Again, take that stat with a grain of salt.

Whether you like it or not, kickers can sway an NFL game or your fantasy football matchup, and we hope these rankings will help your kicker sway you to victory.

WEEK 7 RANKINGS:

Note: We'll update our rankings throughout the week if weather looks like it will be a major factor for any of these kickers. And here's how you could lose in Fantasy Football in Week 7.
